Upfitter Switch Locations

Has anyone put some switches/buttons in their 00-03 HD? I am going to be installing some bed lights and want to have a switch for them in the cab. I figured the best place is the pocket to the bottom right of the steering wheel, but wanted to see if anyone else had any other ideas.

In my 00 I have an overhead console with the glasses and door clicker so I put some switch's inside with the garage clicker. So it's totally hidden. Or maybe you could put a toggle under a bed rail so when your back there, you can flip it on. But I like wiring up to the dome light.

I have waterproof led strip lights under each of the bedrails on my truck, I ran the trigger wire to power them to the passenger compartment and tapped into a dome light wire in the wire loom that's inside the passenger door jamb area. Works great, I usually just half close one of the rear doors to the first click when I need the lights to stay on while loading or unloading stuff at night, then close the door all the way when I'm done to shut them off.
